Hunting

A systems-approach to wildlife management.

The vast lands of La Escalera Ranch support a variety of wildlife, including deer, elk, antelope, javelina, wild turkey, bobcats, coyotes, doves and quail. Wildlife management plays an important role in maintaining a balance of the many species that inhabit the ranch. The Ranch works closely with the Texas Parks & Wildlife Department to enhance wildlife, while providing a carefully managed wildlife program.

Through a private lands and hunting management consultant, the ranch sets the hunting seasons, the harvest limits, ages of animals to be harvested and the number of hunting licenses issued. All these factors are designed to maintain a healthy and balanced wildlife population so that one species does not negatively impact the welfare of another.
